Gingerbread Caramels

We are so proud that our Gingerbread Caramel is a finalist for a Good Food Award in January.  

These delicious caramels are seasonal and will be available next month in time for the Christmas Holidays.  We make them in small batches and so there will be limited quantities of these gems.
Fresh Ginger, molasses, cinnamon and local cream/butter…. like biting into a fresh slice of gingerbread.

Come join us Saturday Oct 29 at Neuse River Brewing for their Dia de Los Meurtos celebrations.  We'll be participating in their Pershing Street Market which starts at 2:00pm.

So Hot

We are still here, just taking a break from chocolate making in this HOT weather.  We should be back in production in September with a few events and hopefully back in full swing in October.  So stay tuned, we'll keep you posted.

National Tequila Day

Celebrate today - National Tequila Day, with these cool ice pops.  Guaranteed to cool you down in this hot weather.

I know a few Dads who would love this

Molten toffee on top of marshmallows, that is what this picture is.  Underneath all that goodness is a layer of graham crackers.  To top it all off we put a layer of 72% Belgian Dark chocolate and sprinkle it with smoked sea salt.  Grab a bag of our Campfire S'mores Toffee for Dad.

Beat the Heat

Here is a "cool" way to beat the heat this time of year and it involves beer.  Yes, they are ice pops made with beer and in this case,  IPA and freshly squeezed grapefruit juice.  Delicious.

Toffee and more toffee..

We will have more of our toffee at the next pop-up market on Saturday April 30 on Pershing Street.  Our tent will be in the Neuse River Brewing Co parking lot.  We share a tent with Neusiok Wines.
So if you are craving some of our toffee, see you next Saturday.  I'll post what flavors we will have during the week.

What a great weekend.

It was a good weekend for GerDan Chocolates.  We sold all our Zombie Bunnies…. the more gruesome the better.  Our Campfires S'mores toffee sold out too so when we do markets we will have to make sure we have plenty.  You can't go wrong with toffee, marshmallows, graham crackers and chocolate.  What makes it "Campfire"?   We sprinkle Hickory smoked sea salt on top.

Peanut Butter and Banana eggs and the Leaf shaped bonbons were citrus made with fruit from Doren Orchards in California.

Our cute little chicky truffles were made with chocolate ganache and coco nibs.

Changed it up a bit with new Tshirts

Saturday March 26

Easter is nearly upon us and if you need some chocolates and candy for Easter, then drop by the Easter Pop-up Market at Neuse River Brewing this coming Saturday.  There will be several other great vendors there.  Weather is going to be great.
